One of the most important things a tutor can do is continue supporting and motivating a student after a poor result. Rather than allowing a student to feel discouraged or demoralised, a tutor should use this as an opportunity to help them reflect on what went wrong, identify areas for improvement, and develop strategies to perform better in the…

Apart from teaching subjects tutors play an important role even in shaping a kid's soft skills. Tutors should have empathy towards the kids, understand their struggles, be it personal or academic issues and help them out in all possible ways. Tutors should consider themselves as parents of the kids they teach and act accordingly. I handle kids…

Communication has been prompt and easy. Tutor sourced and started quickly. Lovely tutor gets on well with my daughter.
Sharon Watkins, Turramurra

Inside TurramurraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Jack focused on consolidating subtraction and division, identifying these as areas for extra support while building confidence through arithmetic practice.

Year 10 Amy spent time reviewing a recent math test—clarifying mistakes in functions, probability, and integration—and then refined her comparative Module A English essay by strengthening structure and key paragraph elements.

For Year 11 student Lucas, the lesson centred on tackling probability trees and conditional probability before moving to advanced calculus concepts like interpreting first and second derivatives, using worked examples to target exam weaknesses.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Mathematics, one student tended to feel overwhelmed by multi-step trigonometry and geometric series problems, which led to difficulty expressing solutions algebraically.

A tutor observed, "She gets stuck when questions are wordy and can't always break them into manageable steps."

In Year 9 English, responses sometimes lacked flow and coherence between sentences within a paragraph, making arguments less persuasive under timed conditions.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student often left out working in division or fractions—resulting in repeated calculations when errors arose mid-solution. The result: time lost retracing steps instead of building confidence with new material.

Recent Achievements

One Turramurra tutor recently noticed a big change in a Year 11 student who had previously struggled with logarithms—this week, he not only understood and applied the laws of logs but also spotted and fixed his own errors without prompting.

Another high schooler who used to get stuck on function questions began connecting first and second derivatives to the original graph's behaviour, showing real independence in tackling integration as well.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student made the leap from guessing at word problems to confidently breaking them down and forming equations, finishing all his mental calculation tasks on his own.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Turramurra Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Northside Montessori School.
